"Listen Christians"

I was hungryand you formed a humanties club, and you discussed my hunger, Thank You.I was imprisionedand you crept off quietly, to your chapel in the cellar, and prayed for my release.I was nakedand in your mind, You debated the morality of my appearance.I was sickAnd you knelt, and thanked God for your healthI was homelessand you preached to me, of the spiritual shelter of the love of God.I was lonelyand you left me alone, to pray for me.You seem so holy, so close to GodBut I'm still very hungryAnd lonelyAnd ColdSo where have you prayers gone?What have they done?What does it profit a person to page through a book of prayers, when the rest of the world is crying for help?

Who Is the Author?

Generally burning the candle at both ends - every day of my life. Ordained minister, serving a church I love, a new life in a (re)new(ed) city, missing friends & family from all over, keeping up with a social life, figuring out how a reverend and her fiance plan a wedding, all while trying to maintain some level of sanity!
